Can you name three other players in the deal that sent Didi from the Reds to the Dbacks?

Byron Buxton is why the Diamondbacks were stupid to trade Ender Inciarte

Travis Sawchik

6:11

Buxton playing CF is probably the most enjoyable thing to watch in baseball

Jeff Sullivan

6:11

Because center field defense is ENORMOUSLY IMPORTANT

DRS shout out on ESPN. Love Mendoza as an analyst

Travis Sawchik

6:14

And Outs Above Average!

I think Mendoza does a really nice job

Jeff Sullivan

6:15

Byron Buxton had a .314 OBP and 24 outs above average. Same as a .362 OBP and 0 outs above average

Jim Golderman

Talking about DRS in a nationally broadcasted game... even just 10 years ago that was unthinkable.

Jeff Sullivan

That's true. Ten years is a long time, though

MaineBall

So would you say that Kipnis in CF is trouble for the Indians then?

Jeff Sullivan

6:17

Well thankfully they never allow any balls in play

Travis Sawchik

What's kind of interesting about Buxton is he was merely a good defender last year, now he's the best https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/byron-buxton-explains-how-he-catches-e...

Do you guys think Buxton is going to stick in the bigs this time?

Jeff Sullivan

Not sure I'm sold on the bat yet but he's never going to see the minors for an extended stint again
